The Rising Sun was situated at the
junction of Oxford Road and Castle Street.
This pub was later used as The Royal Siam restaurant and has now been
demolished. A 16th century inn, it was taken
over during the war by my grandfather, Charles Keeble, who ran it until
about 1955. It was an ABC pub and was replenished weekly by the ABC draymen
and their horse and cart who came down Rickfords Hill from their previous
delivery at the Saracen's Head. |

I was Stationed at RAF Halton from
January 1960 to December 1962, and in the latter part of my RAF training
my colleagues and I used the Rising Sun as our regular Saturday Night
watering hole. It was just far enough out of the town centre to make it
less likely that RAF Police would make surprise visits, as they looked
for underage, illegal consumers of alcoholic beverages. A jolly fine pub
as I recall. |
